"An alien flying object lands to plug a hole in its hull," says the farmer»
The alien flying object that shocked the entire region this week with its multicolored capers in the skies over the northern provinces appeared to be able to perform its maneuvers easily, even though it was dented and required major repairs.
When a local farmer from Groot Marico in the western plains region of the Transvaal first spotted the saucer-shaped object on Thursday morning, he noticed that there was a clearly visible hole in its hull. The farmer, Mr. Jan Pienaar (45), believes that this " car " landed on a remote country road between Coligny and Braxpruit to repair its damaged hull. However, its arrival probably provoked a hasty retreat of the "machine" and a rapid ascent into the sky.
Mr. Pienaar said that his direct encounter with an alien aircraft from outer space was something very unusual for him, and that he would not forget this event for the rest of his life. It was difficult for him to describe the feeling of complete bewilderment during his 3-4-minute meeting.
Pienaar explained:
"It was about 8: 30 in the morning when I turned into a bend in the road and saw a black man covering his face with his hand, as if he wanted to repel something. At that moment, the engine of my brand-new truck stopped. I looked up and saw the most incredible sight: about 80 meters [240 feet] down the road in front of me was a huge ship resting on three landing pads. It extended the entire width of the road and was about 8-9 meters [24-36 feet] high.
The entire unit was translucent and shiny, as if it was made of stainless steel. It was shaped like two inverted soup plates with a baking bowl on top. There seemed to be seven windows or portholes on this upper level. A red-purple-green-yellow glow was coming from somewhere, illuminating the hull.
I couldn't see any creatures nearby, just a strange "ship" that hummed like a giant electric beater. I got out of my little truck, but suddenly I couldn't take a step. It was like a magnet was holding me in one place.
I was standing there for three or four minutes when the ship suddenly rose into the air. First, he flew like a helicopter high into the sky, and then, like lightning, rushed to the sky."
Mr. Pienaar told us that it was some time before he came to, and when he got into his truck and turned on the ignition, the engine immediately started again. After this incident, he continued to search for the black man he had noticed earlier because he was wondering what had become of him. All he could see was the old man's tailcoats fluttering in the wind as he hurriedly wheeled his bicycle along the dusty road.
Pienaar called the police from a nearby farm, where he was told that an alien flying object had apparently been spotted the night before in various locations over the northern provinces.
Thirty minutes after the phone call, Mr. Pienaar returned to the scene where he had survived the aircraft incident. This time he was accompanied by Mr. Chap Smith, a farmer from the region. They stopped the truck at the spot where Pienaar had seen the flying object and got out of the car.
The ground at the landing site was hot to the touch and could easily burn a person's hand. There was a strange smell in the air, almost like chloroform.

“Alien flying object lands to repair hole in its hull, says farmer”
An alien flying object that had the entire region in turmoil this week with its colorful capers in the sky above the northern provinces could easily perform its maneuvers, it seems, even though it was dented and required a major repair job.
When a local farmer from Groot Marico in the western Transvaal plains region first observed the saucer-shaped object on Thursday morning, he noticed that it had a distinctly visible hole in its hull. The farmer, Mr. Jan Pienaar (45), is of the opinion that this “vehicle” landed on a remote country road between Coligny and Brakspruit to have its damaged hull repaired. However, his arrival probably prompted the “vehicle’s” hasty retreat and rapid ascent into the sky.
Mr. Pienaar stated that his near head-on collision with the alien flying craft from space was something very extraordinary for him, and that he would not forget this event for the rest of his life. He had difficulty describing the sensation of complete perplexity during his 3-4 minute encounter.
Pienaar explained: “It was about 8:30 a.m. when I came around a curve in the road and saw a black man shielding his face with his arm as though he wanted to ward off something. At that exact moment the engine of my brand new, small truck stopped. I looked up and saw the most incredible sight: Roughly 80 meters [240 feet] on the road in front of me stood the huge craft that rested on three landing pods. It extended over the entire width of the road and was about 8-9 meters [24-36′] high. The entire unit was translucent and lustrous as though it had been fabricated from a type of stainless steel. It had the form of two inverted soup plates with a pudding bowl on top. It appeared as though this upper level had seven windows or portholes. A red-violet-green-yellow glow emanated from somewhere and illuminated the hull. In the sheen of the light I was able to recognize that the flying craft had problems because there was a dent with a hole of a little less than 2 feet on the seam around the edge.
I could not see any beings in the vicinity, only the strange ‘craft’ which buzzed like a gigantic electric beater. I got out of my small truck but suddenly I could not make another step. It was as though a magnet held me on the same spot. I stood like this for three to four minutes when the craft suddenly rose into the air. First it lifted up like a helicopter high into the sky, then it sped like lightening on a course toward heaven.”
Mr. Pienaar told us that it took some time before he regained his senses, and when he got into his truck and turned on the ignition, the engine immediately started up again. After this incident he continued to look for the black man whom he had noticed previously because he wondered what had become of him. All he could see were the old man’s tailcoats flapping in the wind as he hastily peddled his bicycle down the dusty road.
From a nearby farm, Pienaar called the police and was told that the alien flying object apparently had been observed previously the night before in various locations above the northern provinces. Thirty minutes after the phone call, Mr. Pienaar drove back to the spot where he had experienced his incident with the flying craft. This time he was accompanied by Mr. Chap Smit, a farmer from the region. They stopped the truck on the spot where Pienaar had seen the flying object and exited the car. The ground on the landing site was scorching hot to the touch and could have easily burned a person’s hand. There was a strange lingering odor in the air — almost like chloroform. The old, black man had disappeared in the meantime and there was no sign of him anywhere.
